Oh Girl, You Are the Cat's Meow

When I was 16, I invested in a pair of Guess cat-eye sunglasses. I liked them a lot though they were hardly the trend at the time. You were cool if you had a pair of Jackie O-esque sunglasses with a large lens and frames in either black or white. A natural classic. Mine had small lenses, were far from a round shape, and were a dark tortoise shell color. The years passed and my lenses became scratched from everyday wear and tear bringing them to the point of replacement...and it's just my luck that cat-eye sunglasses are now in!

If you want to be the cat's meow, you must get your paws on a pair! Look at WhoWhatWear's Accessory Report with some celeb fashionistas and their stylish shades:

Here are my picks for cat-eye sunglasses for those of all budgets:

1) Vintage sunglasses from Etsy $12

2) Printed shades from Top Shop $30

3) Alexander Wang Cat-Eye Sunglasses $325

4) Emmanuelle Khanh Cat-Eye Acetate Sunglasses $640

While I ignore the scratches on my pair of cat-eyes, I will don the Audrey look of Breakfast at Tiffany's (one of my favorite movies) where she popularized said shades and put together a classic ensemble. LBD and pearls or diamonds should do the trick...with of course my chic cat-eye shades.

Meow.
